scubado Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I did a crazy impulse buy. My wife and I were at an aquarium store and I found a fish I just had to have. It's currently on hold at the store while I try to scramble to get a tank setup up for it. It's a type of shovelnose tigercat. I've had large fish before and excited about starting over again.Tomorrow I plan to spend some time painting the front of the house so it looks better when it comes time for the lights.Tonight I get to see what my new 20W leds look like on my van.

scubado Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I got a nice win from Craigslist. I found a 120 gallon fish tank, stand filter unit for $100. Needed a little work, but it'll get me by for a couple years until the fish out grow the tank, then I'll build another big tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CKSedg Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Tonight my wife and I sat down and made a list and a timeline of what needs to be done before the show begins. Now I need to get to work---fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Saturday I watched my beloved Tigers get Justin Verlander his 20th win, and solidify their hold on first place, and then as an added bonus, watched the Lions make the Patriots look like, well, the Lions usually do (I know, I know, its only exhibition...).Sunday was a variety of lighting layout and planning work...so i didn't totally goof off the whole weekend...

David Rise Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 This is so funny. I went to Home Depot Sunday morning and bought a bunch of cup hooks just for this purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Yea, the two additional storage bins I got from HD, and the hard rubber hose material from Lowes is for the additional arch sleeves I need to make, and store.If you, or I, had told them "oh yea, I know its august, but this is for Christmas decorating" they'd have not believed us...
